Close the blinds with Siri
Quick answer
"Close the blinds" and Siri lowers HomeKit-compatible shades; "open the blinds" raises them. Name the room for a specific set, and say "set the blinds to 50 percent" for partial coverage on shades that support it. Pair it into a scene to do a whole room at once.
Say this
“Close the blinds”
How it works
- 01Add your smart shades to the Home app
- 02Wake Siri and say "close the blinds" or name a room
- 03Use "set the blinds to 50 percent" for partial on supported models

If Siri doesn't get it
Partial positioning only works on shades that report position to HomeKit. Basic models may only open and close fully.
